Open a PowerPoint document (new, or existing) and go to Developer (1)\Add-Ins (2)\Store (3) First, Get the Add-Inįirst you need to get the Add-In and install it in PowerPoint. All sharing features require at least a Pro License for the person consuming the report and also for the person authoring the report. Power BI embedding in PowerPoint is considered a sharing feature by Microsoft. If you have an older version of PowerPoint, this feature may not be available to you. Note, I am using PowerPoint version 2207 (July 2022, click to run, current channel). Because the report link is live, you can directly interact with the Power BI report exactly as you would if you were in a browser. While the user is making the presentation to the audience (in presentation mode) the report will appear live on screen directly inside the presentation without the need to jump out of slideshow view and navigate to Power BI via a browser. This means that people can build a regular business presentation using PowerPoint and directly embed a related Power BI report directly inside the PowerPoint document so it can be accessed exactly when and where it is needed. The Power BI Add-In for PowerPoint allows Power BI users to embed a live Power BI Report into a PowerPoint document. I don’t think this will change in my lifetime.

Sometime after releasing this feature, Microsoft refocussed its efforts away from Power Pivot/SharePoint Enterprise and started to re-build again from scratch as a new standalone BI app known to us today as Power BI. It used to be possible with the first release of Power Pivot for Excel and SharePoint Enterprise Edition. Believe it or not, the ability to embed Power Pivot reports into PowerPoint was one of the first features delivered by Microsoft way back in 2014 or 2015. I first blogged about this back in October 2021 when Microsoft announced live Power BI embedding was coming to PowerPoint.
